Watch Titus Andronicus' Patrick Stickles Cover Lana Del Rey

"Covering the Song of 2011 in my parents' living room, day after Christmas."

Not to be outdone by the many bedroom recordings of Lana Del Rey's "Video Games" currently building up on YouTube, Titus Andronicus frontman Patrick Stickles has posted a video of his very own piano-and-voice cover. The rendition was performed at his parents' house, he said, and features an array of entertaining facial expressions. Stickles notes,"the performance was intended to be very tonally pleasing, and not at all ironic or funny."

Stickles also Tweeted a stream of comments, which are now to be expected from one of indie rock's mostprofilic punk rock microbloggers. "Man, this song is really real," he wrote, explaining, "I HAVE BEEN THE MAN IN THAT SONG." Stickles called the song a "good ass depiction of a real societal problem." Check it out below, and be sure to wait until the end for outtakes.
